Finding Maze

Chapter 21

Miley pov.

I sighed in relief when I saw Jenna's house coming into view. I quickened my pace so that I could just go inside and sleep.

After I left the gang house saying that I would take an 'Uber', I realised I didn't have any money. It was like God had just found his new laughing stock.

So, I started walking. From the gang house to Jenna's house. I passed through ice cream shops, I passed through burger King, I passed through taco bell. I was beyond frustrated when I reached home. I opened the door ajar only to find an elderly women, like way elderly women sitting and talking to Jenna.

Jenna gave me a look. A look I know all too well. It's the look that says 'suffer with me'. Before I could do something Jenna spoke "Mary meet my niece, Miley"

"it's a pleasure meeting you, Mary" I said politely. I remember Jenna talking about some lanky old women coming to neighborhood. She sure as hell looked lanky.

"if you don't mind, Mary. I just came from extra classes so I am going to my room. Please, excuse me " I said pulling my cheeks way up to give her a smile.

Mary looked at me in awe and said"oh dear, of course. Take all the rest you want. It is hard to find children studying at Saturdays. As I was saying Jenna.... " she continued talking with the unwilling Jenna. I smiled at Jenna's pouting face and went to my room. I quickly threw my bag and called the house landline.

Jenna picked it within seconds and said" if you don't help me. No spa "

" it's not like I wanted it" I said, laying down on my bed.

"you said you wanted to go to spa yesterday "she whined

"well, that was yesterday. Today I changed my mind" I said, grinning as I stared at the ceiling.

"baby. Please please save me. I think she is trying to stay at my house because her daughter in law is here" Jenna pleaded.

I started laughing, "Okay, okay. I will help you out"

I thought for a while about how I was gonna save Jenna. Then a brilliant idea came into my head. I smirked to myself and went downstairs.

"Hey Jenna. Mom called, she told us to go to the post office immediately. It's very very important. Something your husband wanted to give you " I said masking my face into complete blankness.

"You are married? "Mary asked.

"I am married?" Jenna asked at the same time as Mary.

I tried controlling my facial emotions from laughing and ruining the moment and continued to act.

"What?" Mary asked, glancing between both of us.

"Oh, I mean. The marriage was very confidential. I couldn't tell it to my own sister. I wanted to surprise her with my wedding. What is it that my husband wanted to drop by, Miley? I am sure it's a silly thing, he usually does that stuff" Jenna said giving Mary a full blown smile.

"Oh actually mom told it was about the divorce papers. You gotta sign it, Jenna" I said, and leaned on the wall.

"what?" Jenna shrieked.

I shrugged my shoulders.

"why does he want to divorce you, darling?" Mary asked, hesitantly.

Jenna was speechless. She had no clue what to say. But I knew Jenna wanted Mary out of her house, and I had feeling Jenna would go to any extent for that.

"I cheated on him with another guy, actually threesome " Jenna said stifling a grin as she played along with my excuses.

Mary was the one who gasped loudest, " oh, oh I should leave " Mary whispered , and gathered all her things in a hurry and left. The moment she left, I burst out laughing, Jenna tried to stay grim but soon she gave in too.
